I second Peter's advice. Adam Blocks Tutorials are very very good. I would recommend you get them and follow them as you go through the learning curve of learning Photoshop and CCDstack.

CCDstack has gone through an evolution. It was quite a simple program initially but it seemed to handle memory very poorly so if you used a larger camera sensor it bogged down quickly. It was not an issue with the smaller sensors that made smaller files.

The later versions seemed to improve in that regard. The latest version I find a bit annoying at times in that the added complexity gets in the road of simply operations but I note there are added functions that it did not hace before. Its still a great program. I find some programmers make things easy to understand and intuitive. CCDstack is not quite like that. Its not that hard either. For example it does not come with a comprehensive set of instructions as far as I know so you have to rely on someone like Adam Block to pump out some tutorials.

Adam steers you through Photoshop very well.

Greg.
